Sen. JOHN MCCAIN SUCKS - TAKE ACTION!!!
I am so mad at Senator John McCain, that spineless wimp and G.W. Bush sellout.

Word is that the reason he is kissing Bush’s rear and they are best “love buddies” now is that Bush offered McCain Sec. of State when he wins the November election because Colin Powell is leaving.

Let us all remember:

1. Look at what the identical Bush-GOP attack machine, that is fraudulent trying to destroy Kerry (O’Neill/SBVT), did to McCain in 2000. It was the most disgusting slime I have ever witness.

2. Bush and his attack machine fought McCain on his campaign finance reform bill that finally became law. It didn’t work but McCain’s heart was in the right place. And let’s remember, McCain started that reform drive because of the Bush Family machine, Enron’s massive campaign donations and corrupt political influence.

3. McCain was a sharp critic that spoke out against Bush’s massive tax cut, that is now responsible for the largest annual deficits in the history of this country.

4. McCain after spending almost 6 years as a Hanoi Vietnam POW, was the one that joined John Kerry in going back to Vietnam to account for missing Americans and POW, and then later worked with Kerry to establish normalized relations with Vietnam to help rebuild the bomb-out, in-despair country and its civilians, with President Clinton and Congress ultimately passing a law making this a reality.

In 1995, in the East Room at the White House, when President Clinton announced the passing of the law to normalization U.S. diplomatic relations with Vietnam, he had two people standing with him, - John Kerry on his left and John McCain on his right.

Let us all remember that John McCain did not like John Kerry because of Kerry’s anti-Vietnam war protesting. But after a very long conversation in 1991, when both were stuck on an overseas flight with each other, McCain got to know Kerry and became one of his best Republican political friends and supporters.

5. Now the Bush-GOP pimp machine has started a media promotion for McCain to once again hood-wink the American public that McCain is a Bush-Cheney ally and always has been!

I wonder what McCain’s going to do when Bush loses to Kerry in November. The wimp will come crawling back to Kerry like the spineless gutless slime that he is.

You talk about someone that has pissed off a large number of Vietnam Veterans, including Democrats, Republicans, and Independents...it John McCain!

* * * PLAN OF ATTACK * * *

1. ALL INDIVIDUALS FOR KERRY-EDWARDS NO MATTER WHAT PARTY AFFILIATION SHOULD EMAIL MCCAIN AND THE MEDIA AT THEIR DISGUST WITH THIS SITUATION.

IF WE PUT HEAT ON MCCAIN HE WILL DO THE RIGHT THING!

T.A.B.

PS – Isn’t funny that Free Republic got mad at McCain weeks back and started email bombing him, for McCain’s comments against the SBVT first ad.

11. McCain will be 72 years old in 2008. He has issues
with skin cancer, and hasn't aged the way, say, Reagan did. I seriously doubt he's got a shot in '08. Besides, I still think the Bush people will be pushing Jebby.

4. There's no way he'll...................
" do the right thing". Anyone who's sold his soul to the Bush regime for whatever pittance they'll throw his way is beyond redemption. The die has been cast for McCain, he'll have to live with the consequences.

6. As the Governor of Arizona is a Dem, I would be surprised
they would do that. Senate will be close, I think, regardless of the outcome of this year's election.

12. According to Arizona law, the governor has to appoint
someone of the same party as the person who left the seat.

But it still opens possibilities.

9. Forget McCain. He'll be running against John Kerry in 2008.
Edited on Sat Aug-28-04 09:50 AM by 2004 Victory
That's what this reconciliation with Bush is all about.

First, I think Bush has promised McCain the Sec. of Defense job in
a second Bush Administration (not gonna happen).

Second, if Bush loses (it's gonna happen) McCain will be poised to
get the nomination in 2008. It sure won't be Jeb in 2008, that's
for sure. The Bushes are through after this one. No 3 strikes
necessary.

Since McCain will be Kerry's opponent in 2008, it would be really
stupid for McCain to be on his side this year!

This is all about McCain's self-interest and has nothing to do
with Bush. It's pretty obvious by the over-the-top embrace that
it's fake. Just a little too much by half. And the kiss??
Gag me.
